Dressing:
1/2 c. olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. red wine vinegar (white wine vinegar or white balsamic are acceptable substitutes)
1 tsp. dried basil
1/4 tsp. pepper
Mix all ingredients in a screw-top jar and shake well to combine.
Salad:
In a large bowl, mix any or all of the following:
8 oz. pasta, cooked according to package directions (rainbow rotini or bow ties are good)
chopped red or green pepper
chopped salami
fresh mozzarella balls
olives... I like kalamata
sun dried tomatoes
cherry tomatoes
fresh basil
This tastes better after the flavors have melded for a while........

This sounds Terry Meihaus-esque. I'll definitely have to try it! And BTW I love the new look to your blog (it's been a while since I've been on blogger). I'll definitely be back for more yummy recipes. Ya know, us ISTJs need to have an orderly stash of reliable recipes from which to choose. ;D
dude...making the salad this weekend...excited to see how it turns out!
Ya, let me know what you think!!
Loved it! The sister added some walnuts.... It was a hit!
ooh good idea. Or pine nuts would be super good too.
Julia,
Could you please post the eggplant recipe? :)
OK, I think I have a new favorite pasta to use for pasta salad... radiatore! It's like a little curly squiggle... so good.
